Ground Truth Generating Tool for Traffic Video Detector

Abstract The paper presents an application for generating ground truth data for the purposes of video detection and justifies its use in systems which analyze road traffic videos. The usefulness of described application in the development of video detection software is presented - especially during scene configuration and comparative analysis of video detection results versus ground truth data. The latter is possible due to simplicity of the result text files generated in a similar way both by the presented application and by the video detection algorithm. Two exemplary applications of the tool designed to generate ground truth data are presented, together with a discussion of their construction, functionality and abilities.
